Original Abstract

A real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) detection system with a TaqMan probe for quantification of soya in meat products was developed and evaluated. The detection system targeted the Le1 gene encoding for soya lectin and exhibited 100% inclusivity (9 Glycine max cultivars) and 100% exclusivity (22 plant samples) for the detection of soya. Analytical sensitivity of the assay was 5.75 pg DNA per reaction, which corresponds to approx. 2 haploid genome equivalents. Practical detection and quantification limits for three different soya protein-based additives (protein concentrate, protein isolate, okara), in liver pate as a matrix, were at a level of 0.1 g.kg(-1). The calibration lines for each series of model samples containing individual soya protein-based additives were statistically identical in the range from limit of quantification to 100 g.kg(-1), which means that the same calibration line could be used for all soya protein-based additives. The developed real-time PCR facilitated semi-quantitative estimation of soya protein-based additives in meat products, which may be useful for the control of labelling of meat products.
